Cherish life, stay away from fools

He doesn't understand the jokes you're talking about, he thinks he's funny, you scold him, he thinks you praise him, you treat him as a fool, he's still very hot with you, it's nothing, just be afraid, if he doesn't come, he will fix it Accidents, originally small things he turned into big ones, good things he turned into bad things, and he said to you that you don't need to thank him for helping, anyway, I can't deal with this kind of idiot in my peaceful life, but fortunately, this movie is not about it. Not exactly who's an idiot, so it's worth talking about.

Suppose, if the successful people in the film were replaced by a group of children, then these stupid people would become as cute and funny as the clowns, and if replaced by a group of young people, these stupid people might seem very mysterious and cool. But why did the same group of people become the so-called stupid people in the movie?

When we grow up, like the protagonists, we have to climb up and earn more money, otherwise we cannot pay the mortgage, our assets will become negative, and we will go bankrupt at any time, not to mention getting married. Did you mature to shoulder the burdens and responsibilities of life, or did you fall and go with the flow like a mortal? What exactly is important in life? The film expresses an interesting point of view.

The whole film reveals a kind of madness that is about to get out of control at any time. This madness seems to have no meaning at all, making the audience feel a sense of inexplicable. But it is precisely this kind of interpretation that can trigger the viewer's thinking. Is the whole film meaningless? Does the opposite of these so-called stupid people make sense? There is no point in growing a beard, no point in training vultures, no point in channeling, no point in fencing a blind man, no point in making models. These idiots spend their time on things that don't make money at all, the biggest of them can't even find his wife's clitoris, please spare me, there's no need to make them so stupid, even for the sake of Create laughs.

The essence of the movie is that in the eyes of successful people, these people who don't know how to make money and have inexplicable hobbies are fools, and in the eyes of fools, those who only recognize money are fools, and our male protagonist splits himself like this. Now, the reality needs to make money, and he himself likes art.

This pair of men and women in the movie reminds me of the If You Are the One I often watch, most of the conditions for choosing a mate for many female guests are called self-motivation. What is self-motivation? To put it bluntly, you are young now and may have a low position, but you must have the heart to climb up, so that material life can be guaranteed, and love will not be talked about hungry. In fact, as long as you have a salary, you will not be hungry. abdomen.

The man and woman in the movie are happy. When they meet such a heroine, a man is happy. After failing to propose repeatedly, he thought it was because he was not motivated enough, so he launched an attack on promotion. He failed, and I can only be glad that this woman didn't ask for self-motivation, even though he was out of a job. This is a love, a love that has nothing to do with self-motivation. The failure of the proposal is because he is too casual and not sincere. This stupid man finally didn't mess up one thing, because love is very important in his heart.

Why would you fall in love with someone? The stupid man's ex-wife was as fat as a pig, and even gave him a green hat and defected to his boss, so that he couldn't lift his head, but he recorded those bits and pieces carefully. Loving someone is not based on appearance, appearance, sex, wealth, or hate or revenge. He shouted, "I gave you the pudding." At that moment, I actually had the urge to cry, and he let it go.

Who is stupid? 100 million in 2 years on Wall Street has become 1 billion, regaining what has been lost and reaching the peak again, this is success! And the film ruthlessly ridiculed it. In the eyes of the inexplicable artist, the male protagonist is just a stock speculator, and their work does not even generate any value. The so-called stock speculation is to buy low and sell high. The so-called insurance means that the fewer people die, the better. The dead people will try their best not to lose money. The so-called financial management means that you make a lot of money and give you a fixed deposit. If you lose money, it is yours. These are jobs that have nothing to do with the progress of human society. They have nothing to do with human beings walking upright, have nothing to do with the invention of airplanes, and have nothing to do with the invention of electricity. This kind of work does not even have any creativity! What you do is to cheat money from rich people, get a commission on financial management, earn or lose a commission...

No matter how useless art is, it is better than a stock speculator, and no matter how much material is enough, it is not worth one of your hobbies. What kind of bullshit is self-motivated, but it's just a shameless mind to cheat money!

However, if stupid people act like they do in the movie, I'd better stay far away. I'd rather fight with Hara, who is a stock speculator. At least he can understand when I insult him and scold him, and it seems that I'm wise. . If I really meet such a stupid person, even if I have mastered the martial arts in the world, even if I have mastered the martial arts of the Jiuyang Shengong Jiuyin Zhenjing Dugu Jiujian Sunflower Collection Jade Girl Heart Sutra, I will have nowhere to exert force against such a person!

So, I can only say: "cherish life, stay away from fools"


ps: self-motivated, you leg
